Electric power lines are subject to disturbances such as severe weather conditions, contact with animals, falling trees, human accidents, equipment malfunction, etc. These catastrophic events can trigger an electrical fault, which...
Nowadays the medium-voltage dc system (MVDC) has been proposed in the renewable energy collector fields, long distance power transmission, small-scale industrial networks and all-electric shipboards due to its relatively higher...
The current trend for naval destroyer-class ships is the move toward DC distribution systems as the next generation of ships is developed. The main motivation for using DC is to increase the power density of the ships to accommodate...
Demand for electrical power is increasing around the globe to keep up with the ever-increasing annual load growth, which in turn requires new power sources to be installed. As a society, there is a greater emphasis for power sources to...
In large-scale power systems, the integration of intelligent monitoring system increases the system resiliency and the control robustness. For example, sensor monitoring allows to automatically supervise the health of sensors and detect...
Recently, power electronic devices provide excellent features in modern distribution networks such as load regulation and power factor adjustment. On the other hand, these devices exhibit nonlinear characteristics due to the semi...
This work proposes that the biodiversity crisis that has been documented in recent years in the Amazon is directly related to the ideas about the use of nature that the first European explorers, conquerors, and settlers proposed about...
Biofilms were first used to treat wastewater in the late 19th century, and still play an important role in today’s wastewater treatment plants. Biofilm model is one of the most essential and powerful tools for studying biofilm process, ...
As the cost of renewable energy resources decreases and environmental concerns, such as global warming, arise, new ways of generating, storing, and using clean energy are being encouraged by governments and organizations around the world...
With the developments in semiconductor technology, power electronic devices have had a crucial role in power systems. They are employed in a different variety of applications, including but not limited to energy conversation and grid...
Wide bandgap (WBG) semiconductors such as silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN) devices have received increasing attention over the past two decades due to their better electric and thermal performance. Compared with Si devices...
Recent developments in high voltage semiconductor power devices and the introduction of Wide Band Gap (WBG) based Silicon Carbide (SiC) and Gallium Nitride (GaN) MOSFETs and Diodes have provided power electronics applications engineers...
Power hardware-in-the-loop (PHIL) is a powerful technique that allows researchers to test hardware under different operating conditions and environments.PHIL creates a closed-loop environment, where a single physical device is coupled to...
